  • REVELUTION: More Coronary Plaque Progression With Leuprolide Than Relugolix in Prostate Cancer
    In men with localized prostate cancer (PCa) treated with radiation and androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT), treatment with the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) leuprolide was associated with a significant 12-month increase in coronary artery plaque volume when compared with treatment with relugolix, according to a brief report of the REVELUTION trial published Feb. 18 in JAMA.
  • 20-Year Outcomes For PVI in Patients With Drug-Refractory Paroxysmal AFib
